Special Cable to The American. DUBLIN, April 11.—The charm of a heautiful woman has been thrown in tne balance against the interests of the British Government in the Ul ster crisis, with the result that the Government is being worsted. The fascinating Marchioness of London derry, gossip openly declares, is re sponsible as much as anyone else for the revoit of the officers at the Cur ragh camp, who are threatening res ignation rather than obey the orders of War Secretary Asquith.

BALTIMORE, April 11.—George (“Honey Boy"”) Evans. the minstrel, is to become a patient at the Johns Hopkins Hospital, where, it is report ed, a serious operation will be per formed on him, in Ulster for some time, on the side of anti-home rule, and there are many who are ready to believe the open rebellion of the army officers at Curragh is due to her {nfluence and tascination. The officers, most of them of Irish blood, have vowed that they will nev er consent to fight Ulster to enforce home rule in that province. If they are called upon to do so, they declare, they will resign at once; such an ac tion would disrupt the British army in Ireland. Lady Londonderry is endeared to many of the officers because of her family and her staunch Irish tradi tions, as well as for her own -»rson ality. In London ‘they are referring to her as “enchantress,” “a modern Cleopatra” ani “Circe,” and the con vietion persists that she is in the main responsible for the action of the British officers, Farmers Sue U. S. For Quarter Million HUTCHINSON, April 11.—8 Suit has been filed here on behalf of 110 farm ers against the United States for $370,000.
